Perf testing long running transactions

[asachde]

Has anyone used Hyades or other open source tools to test long running transactions (Page flow)? I am having trouble getting the conversation ID resent to subsequent transactions. Maybe this belongs more in the tool's forum but figured I'd check to see if anyone has done performance testing on seam with pageflows.

Thanks.

Short of getting a generator working I opened 5 browser windows for a simple application that uses security (modified CVS code) and forwards to a page from where other pageflows are to be launched. The login process does not have a pageflow. Randomly I get the following exception on the console (usually at least 1 out of 5 windows and at times upto 3 windows and when I retry it logs me in w/o a problem)

I believe that this is a bug that is now fixed in CVS.

I am actually using the 10/10 build (1.1) for the above test. I'll retest it with the latest build and check - Thanks
